J. S. from Pennsylvania (4/7/2009)
"Excellent course, and well-organized" (about: 2009)

6-10 previous marathons | 1 Garden Spot Village Marathon
COURSE: 5  ORGANIZATION: 4  FANS: 2


This was a great first-time marathon. The course, while challenging, was outstanding. If you are looking to qualify for Boston, it's probably not a good one to run. But if you want a small-town marathon (about 400 runners), that's very well organized, in a very beautiful part of the country, organized by people who really care about the race and the runners, this is definitely one to try. This was a very scenic run through the heart of the Amish Country in Lancaster County. I will definitely run it again. The only cons were some logistical issues regarding the shuttles for the marathon relay and the t-shirts were absolutely lousy (really need to upgrade to a technical). Otherwise, this race is a winner and I imagine that it's sure to grow in the future.
